Description

Brief description of your issue

I am dealing with a few portable packages that do not work:
https://releases.wikimedia.org/mwcli/0.1.0/mw_v0.1.0_windows_amd64.exe
https://www.xwidget.com/download_xwidget.php
Any portable zip file containing the executable of “Friday Night Funkin’” or any of it’s modifications.

Steps to reproduce

Try creating them with the tool

Expected behavior

It would go on to the next steps.

Actual behavior

“Not compatible” with it

Environment
I use the latest version of WinGetCreate automatically downloaded.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with the Wikimedia mwcli executable, XWidget download, and a Friday Night Funkin’ portable zip using the latest automatically downloaded WinGetCreate. Done means each package proceeds past the current “Not compatible” result and reaches the next creation steps.
